It creates a feeling of being away from it all. Forget being fussy, this look is relaxed, not over-contrived, and easy to achieve.  The house has been given a lift using Resene Nero with contrasting Resene Alabaster french doors to add personality and give it a current look. A chunkier pergola brings in a rustic touch. The formed concrete fireplace bookends the deck and is softened by a fig tree. Nonchalant plantings of flowering shrubs and perennials contrast with the rawness of the concrete and stop the design from becoming too austere. Add a long elegant pool and patio – perfect for enjoying the simple life. phone 027 241 2332 web www.megkane.co.nz
